For years, we’ve been sharing our favourite hotspots in The Hague in our blogs, newsletters and on social media, from cosy coffee spots to scenic cycling routes along the edge of the city. This time, we’re shining the spotlight on a different kind of treasure: The Hague’s most charming shops. Whether you’re hunting for a unique gift, craving some interior design inspiration or simply in the mood for a good browse, our city is brimming with places that will put a smile on your face. Shop till you drop!
The Finest Boutiques
From trendy fashion and handmade accessories to everything for green thumbs, The Hague is bursting with boutiques where you’ll find that one special item. Not only will you leave with something you love, but you’ll also enjoy the atmosphere, personal attention and the stories behind each business and its products.
Little Green Shop
If you love plants, beautiful home accessories and vintage finds, Little Green Shop in the Zeeheldenkwartier is a must-visit. It’s the kind of store that makes you want everything, and walking out empty-handed is almost impossible. No wonder it’s been one of our treasures from the very start.
Green fingers or not, it doesn’t matter: as long as you adore plants, you’ll fit right in here. With the expert advice of owner and plant guru Barro, you can transform your home into an even more inviting space in no time. And even if you’re only here for inspiration, it’s well worth the visit.
Achtung! Lady
Achtung! Lady is a beautiful second-hand clothing boutique with preloved fashion and fun accessories, all handmade right here in The Hague. A true local treasure, found on Prins Hendrikstraat.
“The destination in The Hague for premium secondhand loving ladies”
This tagline from Achtung! Lady’s website says it all. This is the place for unique, high-quality pieces. The style is best described as classic, but never boring.
Couqou
A shop you’ve probably walked past countless times without noticing, a hidden treasure worthy of our name. It’s tucked away just off The Hague’s famous Noordeinde, in the cutest little alley. Step inside and we’re pretty sure you’ll feel an immediate urge to shop. Trendy clothing and gorgeous accessories seem to smile at you from every corner, making it almost impossible to leave empty-handed.

For the Little Ones
Arguably the most fun category to shop for is kids. These are our favourite spots for the most beautiful, colourful and sustainable children’s clothing, toys and more.
Achtung! Baby
On the already lovely Prins Hendrikstraat in the Zeeheldenkwartier, you’ll find a unique children’s store with second-hand designer clothes, handmade products, vintage toys and children’s furniture. A warning for anyone with kids is definitely in order: entering this store is at your own risk, as we cannot be held responsible for the purchases you make once you step inside.
LittleYOU
A children’s concept store with sustainable brands, the cutest gifts and a cozy spot for a coffee while the kids play in the play area, tucked away in a side street of the bustling Frederik Hendriklaan. Every item in the store is carefully selected by owner Julia, often featuring Scandinavian brands made from soft, high-quality materials. From wooden toys to adorable dresses, from night lights to cool books for boys, quality and sustainability come first. You might see that reflected in the price, but more importantly, it’s evident in the way the items are used and loved.
Stokstaart
In this charming 19th-century building, you can of course find the finest toys, fun and educational books, and the most colourful clothing for babies and kids from 0 to 12 years old. But secretly, it’s also a treat for yourself. You’ll discover amazing Susan Bijl bags, beautifully coloured tea towels and hand towels from Foekje Fleur, brightly coloured dinner candles, wonderfully scented soaps, hair clips, Labro necklaces, cheerful serving trays, postcards, stools and top-quality pens. And that’s just the beginning. It’s unlikely you’ll leave this store empty-handed.

Weimar Shopping
A street practically bursting with charming local shops and a high concentration of The Hague’s treasures, the Weimarstraat is a must-visit for a proper “Weimar shopping spree”.
Huna Camping & Outdoorshop
Just around the corner from the Weimarstraat at Regentesseplein, Huna Camping & Outdoorshop is a local legend for anyone who grew up in The Hague. Behind its façade lies a dream world for lovers of nature and outdoor activities.
Huna is all about quality products and genuine service. You’ll find all the basics: sturdy hiking boots, tent pegs, and everything you’d expect in a camping store for men, women and children. But Huna goes beyond that. Here you can discover your new winter or rain jacket, trendy Stanley and Yeti bottles, iconic Hunter rain boots, Blundstones, and stylish items from brands like Patagonia, Fjällräven and Salty Crew. Everything is of exceptional quality and highly sustainable.
Studio Limonada
Step inside Studio Limonada to shop for unique handmade lamps in cheerful colours and luxurious fabrics. Give your home — and your mood — a boost with these one-of-a-kind creations.
Founder Ysabel, a creative and entrepreneurial local, radiates the joy she feels from her work, and it shows in every corner of Studio Limonada. What started with one lamp a day in her grandmother’s attic has grown into a shop and atelier on a corner of the Weimarstraat, with orders coming in from around the world. Even on the dreariest day — we speak from experience — you leave this place smiling, with a bright and summery feeling.
SWAPS
SWAPS is a true treasure trove of pre-loved gems. From women’s, men’s and children’s clothing to accessories and shoes, the whole family can be styled from head to toe.
Found something you simply must take home? SWAPS has a clever system: you can buy that second-hand gem outright, trade in your own still-good clothing for a discount, or subscribe to a monthly plan for unlimited swaps. It’s a place you’ll want to visit again and again.
Sprinkelhop
There’s one shop window on the Weimarstraat that naturally makes you stop and marvel at the treasures inside — number 19, Sprinkelhop, The Hague’s vintage design paradise.
If you think we’re good at finding hidden gems, you haven’t met Joke yet. In her shop, you’ll discover the city’s most beautiful interior pieces. Step inside and feel like a child in a candy store, only for grown-ups: stunning lamps, gleaming mirrors, and shiny brass.

Creative Types
In a city full of big chains, boutiques are a breath of fresh air. Shelves and racks filled with carefully chosen items to spark your creativity, or even handmade pieces ready to wear. These are the creative and unique spots that are definitely worth a visit.
Atelier Sientje
A designer piece in your wardrobe? It might seem impossible, but at this Hague treasure, it’s completely doable. Shop stunning clothing from Sientje’s self-designed collection.
The fashion designer dreamed for years of her own store where she could unleash all her creativity. She offers self-designed fashion, exclusive collections created in her sewing studio, and special custom orders. Whether you’ve always wanted a particular garment, want to give a personal touch to an item in your wardrobe, or prefer that blouse in a different fabric, Sientje can make it happen.
But the most important part is, of course, her own collection. Designed and made entirely by her, from pattern to garment, with beautiful rich fabrics, playful details, and flattering fits.
Cross & Woods
At this lovely shop on Westeinde, creativity, knowledge, and a passion for handicrafts come together. With a wide selection of natural and sustainable materials, it’s the perfect place to start your creative sewing or craft projects, or even gift someone a new hobby.
Whether you’re an experienced sewer or just starting a project, Cross & Woods has everything you need to make it a success: sewing patterns, inspirational books, tools, threads, and other supplies. And the team is always happy to help with tips and tricks to get you started.
